Race Format:

Grid positions for a Drivers first race will be drawn by computer at random.
Grid positions for subsequent races will be taken from the previous races finishing order.
NOTE: When a race concludes, drivers will slow down and park in an orderly fashion, [after the start/finish line] and place their cars on the scrutineering/pound table ASAP.

There is a gap of 2-3 minutes between races.

Please ensure your radios have been switched off and returned to the transmitter pound directly after your race.
Drivers are then required to marshal immediately. If you are in a back-to-back race please find a substitute marshal.

Marshaling:

All drivers are required to Marshal the race immediately after their last race. If a driver has back-to-back races it is the driver’s responsibility to find a substitute marshal.
Your undivided attention is needed while Marshaling which means No Cell-Phones or Smoking/eating etc.
Please Marshall, as you would wish to be yourself.
A Marshall’s safety is paramount, and comes first before the marshaling of a car.
Abuse and yelling at Marshalls is “Strictly Forbidden”.
Marshalls are not required to fix cars, they are there to watch for accidents and take corrective action with as much urgency as possible. When any traffic has passed Marshalls must then return to their posts with the same urgency. Failure to marshal or provide a competent substitute may result in the loss of driver’s best race time, and or club points. Substitutes must be notified to the Race Director.
